The purpose of this study is to investigate fashion product image evaluation according to life-style groups of middle-aged women. The subject of investigation was 352 middle-aged women from 35 to 59 living in Daegu by random sampling method in April and May, 2005. The investigation was carried out by questionnaires which were composed of 3 sections: Fashion product image measure, Life style research and demographic variables(age, academic background, occupation, monthly clothing allowance, monthly income). The statistical methods to analyze the data were frequency, percentage, average, factor analysis, cluster analysis, ANOVA, Duncan's multiple range test. The results are summarized as follows: 1. As a result of factor analysis for fashion product image, the four factors including noble image, bold image, practical image, female image were extracted. 2. Middle-aged women were classified into four life-style groups including tradition oriented group, negative oriented group, activity oriented group and appearance oriented group. 3. Significant differences in fashion product image preferences according to life-style groups were found. Tradition oriented group preferred noble image and practical image. Negative oriented group tended to pursue practical image. Activity oriented group pursued a bold image. Appearance oriented group liked a noble image the best and then noble image, bold image in order.

Based on a concept of soundscape, this study aims to investigate Koreans' preference for auditory elements, features, and impressions depending upon the season, and examine how these auditory factors of soundstape and seasons interact with each other and attempt to discover their influence on people's auditory preferences. According to an environmental psychological approach called the caption evaluation method, 45 college students examined the soundscape of Namwon City while racing the streets in four seasons. In order to analyze the interactions between seasons and such auditory factors as elements, features, and impressions, it was conducted the GLM univariate analysis and the NPAR tests for independent samples. The results of the analyses show that there are interactive effects between seasons and auditory factors like elements, features, and impressions and that the auditory factors have an effect on auditory preference. Moreover, as for seasonal preference for auditory elements, it was found that people prefer natural sound in spring, summer, and fall while they prefer social sound in winter. Concerning seasonal preference for auditory features, people place a focus on the behaviors in spring, summer, and winter while they stress the surroundings in autumn, as for seasonal preference for auditory impressions, they make much of sound characteristics in spring and winter but they value the atmosphere of streets in summer and fall. The results of this study can he utilized as useful data in determining which auditory factors among elements, features, and impressions to take into consideration in a soundscape design.

Nowadays various new items are available, but limitation of searching effort makes it difficult for customers to search new items which they want to purchase. Therefore new item providers and customers need recommendation systems which recommend right items for right customers. In this research, we focus on the new item recommendation issue, and suggest preference boundary- based procedures which extend traditional content-based algorithm. We introduce the concept of preference boundary in a feature space to recommend new items. To find the preference boundary of a target customer, we suggest heuristic algorithms to find the centroid and the radius of preference boundary. To evaluate the performance of suggested procedures, we have conducted several experiments using real mobile transaction data and analyzed their results. Some discussions about our experimental results are also given with a further research area.

Like other artificial architectures, the residence is also hard to be changed after once it has ever been built because its life is approximately estimated up to 20years. Furthermore, it may give big effect to residents as the life Quality. Because of these specificities, it seems to be important to forecast how demand of residential market will be changed and what kind of residential environment should be built in the future. First of all, we should consider about what is a current situation of residential environment in this country before beginning researching resident preferences. In addition, we will also research current and new residential style in other country, which should be concerned in. Finally, this study is researched by domestic male and female residents in their twenties and four ties on purpose to gain information what type of resident style they want and to suggest new ways of future residential environment.

친환경 디자인이란 환경과 생태적 측면을 고려한 제반 디자인 활동이나 경향을 의미하며, 최근 많은 기업체에서 친환경 제품이나 서비스를 통해 일반 소비자들과 소통하는 중요한 분야로 인식되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 백화점 쇼핑백 디자인의 재활용 여부와 경험, 횟수, 관심도, 조형성 평가를 통해 주요 3개국(한국, 일본, 미국) 백화점 쇼핑백에 대한 일반소비자들의 친환경적 소구에 대한 인식과 선호도 연구결과를 조사하는데 목적이 있다. 본 연구에서는 분석을 위해 연구범위를 주요 3개국 고급백화점으로 제한하였으며, 분석 대상업체의 개수를 한국 4업체, 일본 4업체, 미국 6업체 등 최종 3개국 14업체를 분석대상으로 선정하고 통계분석(spsswin18.O)하였다. 본 고는 한국브랜드디자인학회 통권 제24호에서 발췌했다.

The vehicle's waning sounds are used for the purpose of informing the specific situation to the driver. In the past, the warning sounds were developed in terms of a simple notification. With the increasing importance of the emotional quality of vehicle, the research in terms of sound quality has been actively conducted. The desired sounds are dependent upon customer expectation and usage requirements. And it based on cultural or regional difference and personal preference. In this paper, the preference study considering the sale region and personal preference is introduced. Jury test for subjective evaluation are carried out and the difference in preference is analyzed.

향 관련 직업을 중심으로 한 연구에는 유기 화학적 냄새에 폭로된 종사자를 대상으로 그들의 작업환경 개선을 주된 목적으로 실시되어져왔으나 천연향 자극에 대한 연구는 전무한 상태이다. 본 연구에서는 화장품 관련 전문직과 화장품 판매직을 대상으로 100%의 basil oil, lavender oil, lemon oil, jasmine oil, ylang-ylang oil (KIMEX co. Ltd, Korea), skatole (TAKASAO co. Ltd, Japan)등 6종 향 자극에 대한 EEG, 주관평가에 대해 알아보았다. 그 결과, 전문직에서 선호도가 높은 향은 Fz와 F3에서, 선호도가 낮은 향은 P4에서 $\alpha$/$\beta$비가 증가하는 경향을 나타냈다. 상호 정보량에 대해서는 두 직업 모두 선호도가 낮은 향에 대한 상호 정보량이 선호도가 높은 향에 비해 더 많았다. 특히 화장품 관련 전문직에서는 전두엽의 상호 정보량이 증가하는 경향이 확인되었다. 이상에서 판매직과 비교하여 전문직은 천연향 자극이 감성효과가 아닌 외부자극에 대한 고차원적 기능을 담당하는 전두엽 영역과 관련된 지성효과로 작용함을 알 수 있었다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the priority of menu management by importance-performance analysis (IPA) of school foodservice menu attributes. Questionnaires were distributed to 448 school dietitians with an official letter, and a total of 292 responses were used for analysis. From the 21 menu attributes, the factors of 'nutrition', 'educational effect', 'capability consideration', 'ease of quality management', 'efficiency', and 'preference of students' were induced from exploratory factor analysis. The levels of importance (p<0.01) and performance (p<0.05) of the 'nutrition' factor were significantly higher with nutrition teachers than school dietitians, while the importance of the 'preference of students' factor showed significantly higher score with school dietitians (p<0.05). As a result of gap analysis for IPA, only the 'efficiency' factor was located in the area where performance was higher than importance, whereas no menu attribute factors were included in the 'concentrate here' area by the usual IPA. Further analysis showed that there should be more effort to improve the performance of an 'educational effect' factor for a school foodservice menu.
